Thanks for the responses. Jack once showed me a wall festooned with
citations from the Park Service for hiking up Mount Rainier solo (wearing a
Seattle Foot prototype). Maybe he's in some crevasse at 14 thousand feet to
this day. If so, I'm glad he had my book. --Tom Starr

Did anyone ever find Jack?

I've been looking for him for years, trivial as it may sound because I lent him
my favorite book.

Jack and I were both affiliated with the Veterans Administration funded Seattle
Prosthetics Research Study under the auspices of Dr. Ernest Burgess in the
early
eighties. Specifically we were involved in development of the Seattle Foot.

This is an old post I know, but it was an early rare version of The Wilderness
World of John Muir, and a gift, so shots in the dark are warranted.

Any clues please let me know.

Thanks!
